MAC and Nicki Minaj Pink Friday 4 Lipstick

Ahhh all of a sudden Nicki Minaj's obsession with 'Barbie Pink' has become crystal clear. The 'rapper' has only gone and bagged herself an exclusive contract with MAC Cosmetics, which will see the launch of a limited edition pink lipstick, bearing the same name as her debut album, Pink Friday.

The bright fuchsia lipstick is rumoured to come in a satin finish and be a mixture of Nicki’s must-have MAC lipstick, Pink Nouveau (Satin), and MAC Girl About Town (Amplified Creme). It's being released on Friday 26th November and will only be available to purchase on Fridays - four consecutive Fridays, so the last day to grab this will be on Friday December 17th.

I'm a big fan of some of the make up looks and bright colours Nicki Minaj wears and to be honest, I can't think of any other black woman in mainstream media who can rock a pink lip like Nicki does. In fact I think she'd do well to be the face of an entire MAC collection, as rapper Eve was for C-Shock back in 2007.

C'mon MAC, you know it makes sense! I'm not bowled over by Nicki's rapping skills, but she can bring it in terms of make up and any collection based on her make up faves would sell like hot cakes!

I'm not sure if this is being released in the UK, so U.S ladies, are you gonna grab one?

ETA: I woke up this morning to a press release in my inbox, confirming that the lipstick WILL be available in the UK on the same consecutive Fridays ONLINE at Selfridges.co.uk and maccosmetics.co.uk

I guess I would have the same feelings about MAC and Nicki as I would when they teamed up with Fergie. As long as it's going to a worthy cause, I'd be on board. If it's going to promote the person's music/album, I think I'll stay away unless I like their music.

I think I'll be grabbing one for collecting purposes. Not sure if I'd use it a lot though since I have colors that are (supposedly) similar. We'll just have to wait and see! I just hope I can get it since I might not have access to internet Friday morning since I'll be driving (you know how crazy MAC is, you have to stalk the site in order to buy anything that's super LE and overhyped.)
